Tamdhu Single Malt Whisky 20 year old 55.6% 70cl Tasting Notes :- Richly perfumed, spiced, with old furniture polish, burnt  orange, cloves and light wood smoke on the nose -

Move on to an initially dry palate (from its sherry heritage) which opens over the next few seconds to a spiced and macerated (rummy?) fruit - Almost gluhwien style.

The finish is just so big, rich, spiced, fruited and darkly (muscovado) sugared in style! (F)
